See those crucifixes with the flowers on the stage at 0:02? I made those! That show was at the Starwood on Easter Weekend. I also made a huge papier mache' Christ which we "rose from the dead" at the Sunday show. X was so great live!

I seen X I think it was in 1980 at The Whiskey. I was front stage & Xena during her 1st song (Los Angeles) tripped & spilled her drink all over me. She then asked for someone to get me a drink but when they asked me for ID I was only 16 yrs old so that drink never happened. She apologized and pinched my cheek. I was more embarrassed than anything :)

I am trying to play guitar along with the track; it's really tough. No doubt in my mind, Billy Zoom is one of the great American guitarists. It seems odd at first that a player of his skill would build much of his career around punk rock, but I think X gave and gives him an opportunity to play fast and loud. He plays rockabilly, bluegrass, country, punk, funk etc., all with the same proficiency. And of course, he plays live as if playing these crazy tempos and chord changes is easy; no Jimmy Page-guitar face for him. I am glad that he came back to X, or that X came back to him. He is, in fact, irreplaceable.

X was great last night at the club formerly known as Nokia. I was so wowed I walked the streets of LA most of the rest of the night and nearly puked. I walked to hollywood and then back into dtla before I found the bus I wanted to get back up north. Novo is for shit because they don't allow cameras in there, otherwise I'dv'e gotten some pictures. X is punk like I figured though. Hopefully they'll put up a video of this show because It's really good and slightly different from their previous stuff.

Cos obviously if you heard of X through Tony hawkes, you'll instantly be thrown in jail for saying you like the song... Cos only real fans are allowed to like songs..... Fake fans have to like other songs that the real fans don't want to be fans of... And those songs which have no real fans and just have normal fans and they aren't heard because no one other than a real fan likes those songs.... I mean.... Unless you know the lead singers shoe size, how many times a week the drummer cuts his toe nails and what the guitarists view on the manchuria debate is then you're obviously not punk and defolutely NOT a real fan!
